"Our long-term partners are India, China, France, and others. We find an opportunity to interact with them even in these difficult conditions. We are also conducting targeted work in the Asia-Pacific region," Loskutov said.

He noted that Russia is also working with the Middle East, North Africa, and a number of other regions.

Loskutov explained that so far the space sector is not an object of direct sanctions pressure, but experiences the indirect impact of sanctions. "We feel some indirect signs, our partners and our clients feel them. We proceed from the fact that it will remain this way, the methods of competition are sometimes unfair," he said.
